Laparoscopic Ventral Laparoscopic Ventral Several Different Several Different Hernia Repair Hernia Repair Types of Hernia Types of Hernia • Ventral Hernia • Patient selection is very important � Umbilical • If incisional hernia repair is needed, need � Epigastric full history of surgical procedures � Spigellian � Incisional • No ongoing infections, fistula, or open • Inguinal Hernia wounds can be present � Direct � Indirect • If loss of domain is present, laparoscopic approach may not be able to bridge the gap • Paraesophageal Hernia � Four different types 1
